Playlist of the week: All about platonic love

The love in the air this weekend isn't just romantic. From Queen's "You're My Best Friend," a love song turned friendship anthem, to Tyler Childer's "Follow you to Virgie," written about the grandmother of one of Childer's friends, this playlist will remind you to appreciate every kind of relationship in your life. Some songs are clear celebrations of friendship and family, while others, such as Sufjan Steven's "Futile Devices," can be platonic or romantic depending on personal interpretation. This playlist truly has something for everyone, whether you're in love, single or somewhere in between.
